Passing the parameter list from the mvsprsd daemon to the shell script

The InfoPrintmvsprsd daemon passes a parameter list for each data set it receives to the InfoPrint Manager MVS Download Receiver shell script. The parameter list contains this information:

  2. The print-options string, which is a series of options and values. See Print options passed to InfoPrint Manager MVS Download Receiver shell script for the list of options. When you specify the -k flag with the mvsprsd command, InfoPrint also stores the options in a file whose name is in this format:
    • For Download for z/OS:
      MVS_system_name.job_name.dataset_name.forms_name.yyddd.hhmmsstABCD.JCL
    • For AFP Download Plus:
      AFPDP.MVS_system_name.fsa_name.userid.jobid.job_name.step_name.dd_name.
        forms_name.ccyyddd.hhmmsstABCD.JCL
    where all the qualifiers in the name are the same as those for the name of the data set, except for JCL. The -k flag specifies that the file contains print options.
  3. The logical printer name, which was specified with the -q flag of the InfoPrintmvsprsd command when the daemon was started.
  4. An empty string.
  5. An empty string.
  6. The port number that was specified with the -p flag of the InfoPrint mvsprsd command when the daemon was started.
  7. The additional script parameters that were specified with the -X flag of the InfoPrint mvsprsd command when the daemon was started.
